be and will not be influenced by unworthy
motives. The menace, more thun once sug-
gested in the communication from Judge
Speer, must be due to an error
which does the government injustice.
Why should its officials get mad because
some of the owners of the BARR tcks property
object to the diversion of their property
from its original purpose, When such diver
sion will, they believe, involve a public
calamity, and when it contemplates by the
proposed use of their property serious and
daily inconvenience to the large majority
of those citizens who most uee a post office!
Instead of their position being indie
fensible," as Judge Speer undertakes to
adJudge, it is right, wise and proper, IN
strict and full accord with the public good.
They ought to know more about the needs
Of Savannah the hotel prospe cts, and the
post office requirements than does Judge
Speer. They have been here longer and
their observation and experience are very
much more extensive. Judge Speer may
speak for his courts, but, in 'Fiew of the
small amount of business done by those
courts, his voice ought not to be loud, or
commanding, or dictatorial.
The hotel contemplated will cost more
than double the amount which the govern
ment will put in its building, 1t will, there
fore benefit the working people a great
deal more, and will cause mo':e than double
the expenditure of money in our COM
munity.
After its erection it will be the source of
incalculable advantage to I'LL classes; will
he extremely useful and ornamental--a
pride and benefaction to the city Why

Using. 1t need and will not interfere with
a new government building. A post office
is certainly greatly to be desired, and
new post Office we will GER
tainly have The Cover nment cannot
afford to much longer remain in a rented
building. The dignity anil Importance of
Savannah, and the manifest justice cf the
improvement must secure this building at
an early day. The government need not
take the barracks site. The public good
imperatively demands it's retention for a
hotel purpose, and abundantly justifies the
position which Judge SpeeI' criticises. x.

rs 1T q BOYCOTT
Underwriters Refuse to Insure the
Resolutes Cargo.

Underwriters Refuse to Insure the
Resolute's Cargo.
The general impression has been that the
orders from the owners of the steamship
Resolute to the Captain to load a dry cargo
of cotton for Bremen settled the wet cotton
cases, but such is not the fact, and several
local shippers are very anxious because
it is not. The ReSolute has taken good
deal of dry cotton on board, and the ship
pers asked for insurance as usual. The
replies received from across the water and
from New York were that both home and
foreign companies declined to take the ReSo-
lute's new cargo except with provisions to
charge an extra rate in case the ship is
detained by litigation
These replies were very suggestive,
though it is not quite clear what they sug-
gest. 1t is generally believed, however,
that they point out the intention of the I'M
derwriters to boycott the Resolute and pre-
vent her leaving the port unless she takes
her old cargo. She has ceased to advertise
the old cargo for sale and it is thought that
possibly she might want to keep it IN order
TO have it in case she is forced to carry it,
but it is matter of doubt what prompted
the withdrawal of the advertisement of
sale.
Another suggestive point is that there
must be provisions to charge an extra rate
in case the ship is detained by litigation u
The possibility of further litigation is point
ed out, but the kilograms fail to say how or
why it may arise Mr. J. n. Johnson, of
H. T. Bolts & Co, was seen yesterday, and
was asked what the underwriters propose to
do in the case, but he declined to talk, say
ing that he had not been advised, and would
not give any positive information.

Wrestler at Turner Hall.
The sporting element was we'll represent

between John Muller and Tom Mccarthy
at the Theatre two weeks ago added to the
interest in last nights match between Greek
George and BILLY" Rain, of Jacksonville.
Greek George was the tutor of Muller, and
is one of the best wrestlers in the country.
He matched Billy Rain to
wrestle Grteco-Roman or catch
as-catch-can, for S75 and half the
receipts, four falls to constitute the match.
There was considerable interest in the event
and the local wrestlers were all out. Greek
George proved too much for his antagonist
and threw him with ease. The match was
mathematician and the Greek won the
first two falls in seven minutes. He then
wrestled John Morgan, a travelling man of
this city, pco-Roman, and threw him
twice in five minutes. Morgan is we'll
built man and a good wrestler, but he was
unable to handle the Greek. Tom Mccarthy

The Young Ladies' Hebrew Benevolent
Association Ball.
The Young Ladies' Hebrew Benevolent
Association gave its annual ball at the
Guards Armory last night, and it was in
every way most pleasant and gratifying
event. The hall was filled with a throng of
dancers in the brightest. and prettiest of
costumes. AT an early hour the guests of
the Association began arriving and before
long there was assembled one of the largest
crowds that has ever attended one of their
popular balls The gentlemen, of course,
appeared in the uniform costume de riguer,
but fancy seemed to have exhausted
herself in devising the exquisite toilets OF
the ladies. The ballroom was a perfect
kaleidoscope, presenting every moment
a new and beautiful scene, each more charm
ing than the vanishing one.
At midnight delicious supper was served
in the assembly rooms by the Rectory So
ciety of st. Johns church, and the dancers
then returned to the ball to complete the
programme. Twenty dances were on the
list, but when they were ended and the
band played "Home Sweet Home" there

THE VALUE CT ADVERTISING.
Some Interesting Facts About 1t for
Business Men.

A representative of the MORNING NEWS,
during the last few days, has been present
ing to the business men of this city certain
facts about the value Of advertising. 1t is
a source of satisfaction that he has met with
a great deal of success. 1t is proposed that
he shall continue this work until every one
whose business would be benefited by being
brought prominently before the public has
been seen.
The purpose is not to beg for advertise
ments, but to explain to those who will lis
ten the value of advertising as means of in
creasing and holding their trade. There are
many business men who have not given the
question Of advertising wisely the attention
it deserves, and, therefore, do not appreciate
how deeply they are interested in it.
An advertisement is tireless worker. 1t
is continually, day and night and in all
places where readers are to be found. pre-
senting and advocating the interests of
those who seek its assistance. When it does
not produce immediate results it lays the
foundation Of future benefits.
The MORNING NEWS knows that money
invested in advertisements produces graft
flying returns. The advertisement not only
greatly increases the prosperity of the in
weston, but benefits the city in which he
lives by presenting the city's advantages to
the world.
The MORNING NEWS, therefore, proposes to
do little missionary work, believing that
both it and the business public whom it
serves will be mutually benefited. Of
In
go over the entire city, but time can be
spared for that which promises such good
results. If there is anything ungleaned in
the advertising field in Savannah it hopes
to secure it, or, at least, to know the reason
why it cannot be harvested for the benefit of
all concerned.

SUPERIOR COURT CLERKsH1P.
Mr.. J. K. P. Carr Appointed to Succeed
Col. Barnard E. Bee.

MIR. j. K. L. Carr appointed TO succeed
Col. Barnard E. Bee.
When the death of Col Barnard E. Bee
became known yesterday the County Com
missioners were urged to meet at oncc and
appoint Clerk of the Superior Court to act
until an election could be held. A meeting
was called and Judge Adams impressed
upon the Commissioners the necessity of an
immediate appointment. Last Thursday
was return day and the papers in all the
cases must be served before next Monday.
The Judge asked that the Commissioners
make the appointment at once and ask
the Governor for a commission for
the appointee without delay, for if delay
should occur it would seriously interfere
with the administration of justice. The
Commissioners therefore appointed Mr.. j.
K. P. Carr, Col. Bees deputy, and for
warded the papers to the Governor last
night. Mr.. Carr's commission will proba-
bly, be received tomorrow. There are pa
pers in the Office now to be served, but they
cannot be turned over to the Sheriff, be-
cause the court is without clerk
Mr.. Carr has been Deputy Clerk of the
the court for long time, and is familiar
with all the duties of the office.

TO THE PUBLIC.

Episcopal Orphans Home Bazaar of
All Nations, Catholic Library Hall on
Dec. 9Th, 18th, 9Th and 9th, 1887.
The Episcopal Orphans Home was
founded in 1854 by the late Rt. Rev. Stephen
Elliott, and as the building first bought for
this purpose was an old frame dwelling, it
became in the years blowing not worth
the constantly needed repairs, and also en-
tirely inadequate for the increased proper
tions of the work Accordingly the ladies
of the board began several years ago to de.
vote special energy ard active work to-
ward raising a building; fund for a new
home. After consultation with some gen
tlemen this past year, it was decided the
amount in hand would warrant the begin
ming of the new house, and it is hoped it
will be ready for occupancy during this
year.
1t is being built of brick, and very careful
attention has been given to all the practical
and healthful requirements of such an in
Stitution.
In the meantime, although our fund has
been increased through generous friends and
our own hard work, the amount raised is
still insufficient to meet the cost of the
building, and this deficiency in the amount,
or at least the greater part of it, we hope to
realize from the Bazaar, and to this end re-
quest your kind assistance.
Either money or articles will be CRATE
fully received and acknowledged.
We hope this explanation Of our work
will appeal sufficiently to your sympathy
and judgment to make it seem worth your
while to lend us in some way helping
hand. Very respectfully,
